The IGB
continues to set the standard
Esteemed readers,
dear friends and supporters of the IGB,
I’m very pleased to present to you our annual report for 2013,
in which we share the outstanding performance and many
achievements of our institute in the past year. For the first time,
this annual report is also being published in English, in order
to inform our international partners about the latest developments at the IGB.
We are well on the way towards becoming a leading international research institute in the field of freshwater ecology and
inland fisheries. What conditions are needed to ensure the
long-term success of a research institute? It’s simple: highly
talented and motivated employees, sufficient resources, professional management, and an inclusive organizational structure.
A successful institution has a clear strategy for quality
management, uses and promotes synergies, practices good
governance, and has an international orientation.

be run in close cooperation with the DSZM (German Collection
of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures), the Leibniz Center for
Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF), and the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research

We continuously work to ensure the necessary conditions for
the long-term success and expansion of the Institute. Our international fellowship program is an example of this spirit.
With it we have established a global network of outstanding
scientists and researchers, and in doing so connected their
research institutes to the IGB. In the last five years, nearly 40
fellows from 20 different countries have performed a research
stay at the IGB for a period from six months up to two years. A
stay at the IGB supports the career development of fellows, and
at the same time stimulates our own research.

INAPRO | innovative
The future of Aquaponics:
The “Tomatofish” jumps into
international waters
The IGB landed a big one: The Institute takes the lead
in a nearly six million Euro project that combines fish
and vegetable farming, and paves the way for practical
application.
Four large demonstration aquaponic systems will be modeled
and then built during the four-year INAPRO project (“Innovative
model & demonstration based water management for resource
efficiency in integrated multitrophic agriculture and aquaculture systems”). The 500 square meter systems will be installed
in Germany, Spain, Belgium, and China. “We are extremely excited about this new project” exclaims the project coordinator
Dr. Georg Staaks. “Together with 18 partners from 8 different
countries, we are taking a decisive step forward in the field of
aquaponics.”
Fish and plant production under a
single roof
The portmanteau “aquaponic” comes from the terms aquaculture (fish farming) and hydroponics (soil-free farming). The technique employs a dual use of water, nutrients, energy and space.
Treated waste water from the fish tanks serves as fertilizer for
the plants. The EU project builds upon the existing aquaponic
research experiences from the IGB. The ASTAF-PRO (Aquaponic-system for (nearly) emission-free tomato and fish production in greenhouses) project, also known as “Tomatofish” was
financed by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research. The system consists of a closed greenhouse in which a
dual aquaculture and hydroponics circuit is installed.

Prof. Dr. Werner Kloas, head of the Ecophysiology and Aquaculture department and one of the Tomatofish inventors explains:
“The specific technique regulates the liquid flow between the
two regions of the system, allowing the optimal growth conditions to be maintained in each individual system.”
New market opportunities in Europe
and beyond
The INAPRO project will demonstrate both the technical and
economic feasibility of ASTAF-PRO on a large scale, and will promote and implement aquaponics in food production. “Together
with our partners from research and industry, we want to inform
and excite politics, business, and consumers about this innovative technology” says Staaks. “INAPRO opens up entirely new
market opportunities for manufacturers and users of aquaponic
systems both within and outside of Europe.”
Kloas believes the project has global relevance: “The world’s population is growing rapidly, and with it, a hunger for resources.
Non-sustainable agriculture and climate change exacerbate the
situation, so we urgently need new approaches to food production and water management. Our technology can make an important contribution to food security in the 21st century.”

innovative | Biodiversity Atlas
Biodiversity Atlas
The Atlas was presented as part of the “Water Lives Symposium” in Brussels, where scientists and policy makers discussed conservation
strategies for freshwater biodiversity.
The first online biodiversity atlas for lakes, rivers, and wetlands
was published in January 2014, in order to provide reliable and
empirical data in support of responsible decision-making.
“The Atlas demonstrates the incredible importance of having
a solid foundation for setting management priorities for freshwater use and protection of its biodiversity. The global boom in
hydropower development, for example, urgently requires reliable data to develop ecologically and socially sound solutions
for water use”, explains Professor Klement Tockner, director of
the IGB and coordinator of the BioFresh research project.
The Atlas was developed in collaboration in collaboration
with 12 international research institutions and numerous NGOs
under the leadership of the IGB. It aims to support all relevant
stakeholders in the protection and management of inland waters. Interested parties from policy, management, and research
are now able to access the online, open-access, and interactive
Atlas. It provides regional and global maps of aquatic biodiversity, as well as background geographical information on habitats, stressors, climate scenarios, and management options.
For ease of use, the online Atlas was created to have a
book-like structure, with four chapters: “Freshwater Biodiversity”, “Freshwater Resources and Ecosystems”, “Freshwater
Pressures”, and “Freshwater Conservation and Management”.
All of the maps are supplemented with an explanatory article,
and background information. The interactive map interface
makes it easy to switch between chapters and maps, as well
as to navigate, zoom, and find additional information. A major
8
advantage of the online Atlas is that it can easily be expanded
and updated as new information and maps become available.
Open to worldwide contributions
The Atlas was developed by the IGB-coordinated BioFresh
project. This European Union funded project collects all avail
able data about freshwater life in order to find sustainable
solutions for the protection and management of freshwater
biodiversity. The scientists involved in the creation of the Atlas
were actively supported by a number of international organizations, including the GEO Biodiversity Observation Network
(GEO BON), DIVERSITAS, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the Global Water System Project (GWSP),
Conservation International (CI), Wetlands International, the
Nature Conservancy, and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
International interest in the Atlas was considerable, right
from the first month of its publication. Within the first months
the Atlas has been accessed by users from 117 countries worldwide, most frequently from the USA, Germany, France, Japan,
and Brazil.
New Atlas contributions are already in the pipeline, including maps of global diversity of freshwater shrimp and
turtles, the diversity of dragonflies in Africa, and the key biodiversity areas in Europe. As an open and collaborative project,
suggestions and contributions of new maps for the Atlas are
very welcome.

Freshwater ecosystems are among the most species-rich
habitats worldwide. The biodiversity in lakes, rivers,
and wetlands is much higher than in the sea or on land.
Policymakers therefore have a difficult task in reconciling the need to conserve inland water ecosystems with
increasing water demand for the energy, agriculture, and
sanitation sectors.
VideoRay Pro4 | innovative
Water exploration by a robot
In 2013 the IGB was joined by a non-human yet very
lively staff member, the underwater robot VideoRay
Pro4. The remotely operated vehicle (ROV) is used in
the LakeLab, the EU-funded project LACUNA, and other
projects.
The specialty of the VideoRay Pro4 robot is distance diving. The vehicle weights less than 14 pounds, and is able to
navigate under the water surface up to a radius of 300 m. The
robot can be used in a wide range of scientific and technical
tasks in small lakes and rivers. In the basic configuration, the
IGB robot is equipped with eyes (a high resolution camera), an
ear (scanning sonar), an arm (remote-controlled manipulator),
and three legs (two horizontal and one vertical propeller). The
vehicle is easily enhanced with other probes and instruments.
The robot lacks only one thing: a good nickname. It will
certainly gain one during its future operations.

Collecting data in the Arctic
The newcomer has passed its early tests with flying colors. It
dove in Lake Stechlin in the Lake ESP measurement station, and
performed underwater surveys in the LakeLab and Lake Arend.
The vehicle is being prepared for its first scientific mission in
the cold of the high Arctic in 2014. As part of the EU-funded
LACUNA field project, the VideoRay Pro4 will visit polar Lake
Kilpisjärvi, in order to install measurement instruments on
the underside of ice. The information gained by the IGB robot
about the structure of hydrodynamic fields in the boundary
between ice and water should enable quantification of the
processes that control the formation and melting of ice in natural freshwater bodies.
The summer season for the underwater robot will open
with the start of large enclosure experiments in LakeLab.
The little diver will explore the properties of the sediments in
the 24 artificial lakes.

Other innovative research uses of the VideoRay Pro4
are currently being prepared. The robot is able to stay for long
periods at water depths where small aquatic organisms concentrate. This provides the opportunity to observe directly the
aggregation and sinking of small organic particles in water –
the unique chance to unravel the enigma of the particle-bound
organic flux in aquatic environments.
Another exciting task for the robot will be to track schools of
fish underwater using sonar, and explore their behavior in the
natural environment. To gain insight into the life of the smallest aquatic organisms, VideoRay Pro4 will dive to the hot spots
of microbial activity on the lake bottom, and obtain water and
sediment samples.

innovative | FISHCON
Counting Fish 2.0
How are fish stocks and assemblages changing in European rivers? Researchers from the IGB collaborate with
Norwegian and Swedish project partners on a forecasting model to assist in identifing appropriate management measures.
Rivers are unique in that they are the only hierarchically branched,
linear ecosystems on the planet. The diversity of freshwater fish
species inhabiting rivers depends on multiple factors. The goal of
FISHCON is to predict how riverine fish diversity will change in response to changes in water and land use, resource management,
longitudinal connectivity, and the dispersal abilities of species.
This collaborative European project is a part of the European Research Area – NET BiodivERsA network for research into biodiversity in Europe.
Supporting local biodiversity management
The FISHCON project team is dedicated to the following goals:
developing large-scale fish dispersal models, providing dispersal
and biodiversity scenarios based on models of climate and land
use change, verifying results by applying mechanistic models
for selected river segments, identifying strategies to improve
the connectivity of river networks, and predicting how such
strategies would affect future fish diversity.
In a next step, various models of species distributions and
species dispersal are combined to make predictions of the
potential future development of species diversity at different
spatial scales for the main European river basins, as well as for
relevant sub-basins. The predictions of fish dispersal and distribution are performed for selected case studies, and used to
validate the models.
FISHCON also aims to account for ecological and evolutionary processes in local biodiversity management. For this reason, further development and adaptation of FIDIMO is planned
to allow simulation of the interactions between individuals, reproduction, and population dynamics.
IGB’s contribution to further development of
the FIDIMO dispersion model
The contribution of IGB is funded through the German
Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
Models for fish dispersal are developed and calibrated at the
IGB. Migration barriers, such as weirs, particularly affect communities in riverine ecosystems. For this reason, predicting the
environmental impact of such barriers is extremely important.
Johannes Radinger | [email protected]
Overview of a FIDIMO simulation: Starting from an initial source population (a),
species-specific dispersal probability (b) and individual-based dispersal (c) are modeled, and (d) coupled with a population growth model in a further step.
For iteratively modeling longer time periods, the predicted model results can be used
as initial source populations for the next simulation.
10 A first model considering the dispersal abilities of 62 fish species
– FIDIMO – has already been developed as part of the IMPACT
project, which was coordinated by the IGB. FIDIMO models fish
dispersal in river networks considering also existing sets of migration barriers. Subsequently, the actual distributions of species
that might act as source populations are identified, the suitability
of available habitats as well as climatic and land use changes are
determined and integrated into the model.
Knowledge and Technology Transfer | innovative
Putting Science into Practice:
Knowledge and Technology Transfer
at the IGB
Another form of knowledge transfer:
Project coordinator Johannes Graupner uses the aquaponic system ASTAF-PRO
The body of knowledge possessed by humankind increases continuously through research. This knowledge
is sometimes of great value for solving practical problems or developing new products. Scientists, however,
often lack the time and resources to “transfer” newly
gained knowledge into practical applications. The
“Sectoral Exploitation” program of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) aims to
enable research institutions to support “Knowledge and
Technology Transfer” (KTT). In July 2013, the first such
three-year project started at the IGB.
Photo: IGB
The goal is to devise concepts for new KTT structures, and
to encourage KTT to take root within the entire Institute.
The Institute’s research will be continuously screened for ideas,
insights, inventions, and technologies that have the potential for
practical application. Through this means, both the quantity and
quality of such transfers should be increased throughout the
IGB.
“The project’s aim is not to economize science, however, and
it will not affect research freedom at the IGB” says project
coordinator Johannes Graupner. “Value is not always measured
in money: we aim to keep all stakeholders in mind, for example policy makers, public administration and also the general
public. Indeed, the transfer of knowledge to such stakeholders
is extremely important because our research fulfills a social
responsibility.
to explain to a young visitor how sustainable farming works.
One should also never forget that research is funded by
our society, and the public is for good reason therefore
interested in knowing to what use public research funds were
put.”
An Expanded Research Scope
Expanding the financial scope of individual research projects
is a parallel objective of the project. The possibility of obtaining future IGB funding through patenting, licensing, collaborations, consultancy, spin-offs or even technology sales will be
examined, with the help of external management support
provided in the BMBF program. The IGB will work in cooperation with “engage AG”, who have assisted research institutes
throughout Germany and will provide complimentary expertise
and additional capacity.
“The goal of the project is to encourage the organic growth
of a culture of transfer at the IGB, not to establish a rigid topdown structure” explains project leader Prof. Dr. Werner Kloas.
“Our aim is to establish this practice piece by piece at the IGB
through the demonstrated success of individual and favorable
transfer examples.” Sub-projects that have already been assisted include ASTAF-PRO, XENOCALL, and MONERIS.

innovative | AquaMeth
On the trail
of the methane paradox
In the AquaMeth project, IGB researchers seek to better
understand the production of greenhouse gases, in order
to enable a reliable prediction of the worldwide methane
production. The DFG funded project started in November
2013, and will run for three years.
Methane is a highly potent greenhouse gas. The global methane budget is currently unclear, because there are too many unknown sources and sinks. For example, greenhouse gas release
from stratified water bodies depends strongly on environmental conditions. Sediments are an important methane source,
because they are an ideal habitat for methane-producing
Archaea (a kingdom of single-celled organism different from
bacteria). The amount of methane accumulation in the water column depends upon complex interactions between methanogenic Archaea and bacteria that oxidize it. It turns out that methane
is not only produced in oxygen-free environments. The so-called
“methane paradox” states that the oxygenated surface water of
lakes and oceans is often supersaturated with methane.
This means that these waters can act as a methane source, contradicting our current understanding that methane cannot be
formed in oxygen rich water.
Methane production in the upper,
oxygenated water of Lake Stechlin
Studies in LakeLab
The seasonal development of epilimnic methane will be examined in the AquaMeth project with concurrent examination of
the primary producers (photoautotroph) and stratification in
Lake Stechlin. The LakeLab will be used to study methane profiles
experienced with varied stratification and autotrophic communities. The link between methanogenic Archaea and the photoautotrophs will be studied in incubation experiments. Methane-depleting (methanotrophic) bacteria will be quantified, and
photoinhibition of methane oxidation will also be measured in
incubation experiments.
The methanogenic Archaea will be enriched and
cultivated in laboratory experiments. IGB researchers will
undertake physiological studies by using these enrichments
or pure cultures to determine the underlying molecular
mechanisms of methane formation. Finally, field and laboratory
experiments will uncover the key to the methane paradox, and
characterize and quantify the methane sources in surface water. The project aims to improve our understanding of the global methane cycle, thereby ensuring more realistic predictions
of methane gas production in the future.

In the nutrient-poor Lake Stechlin, IGB researchers have observed
recurring methane supersaturation in the epilimnion (the upper
water layer). They were able to demonstrate that the methane
does not originate from the lake sediments, but is rather actively
produced in the oxygen-rich water column.
The methane production seems to be coupled to the primary
production of green algae and cyanobacteria. Since there are no
methane-degrading bacteria in the epilimnion, the methane is
not oxidized. So what is the source?
The IGB researchers suggest that the methane producing
Archaea make use of hydrogen from the photosynthesis of
green algae and/or nitrogen fixation (i.e. binding of dissolved
nitrogen by the nitrogenase enzyme and incorporation into
organic matter).

Department 1 –
Ecohydrology
The research goal of the department of ecohydrology is to understand
basic physical and biogeochemical mechanisms, and to quantify their
interaction with ecological processes. This will improve our understanding of aquatic ecosystems, and will also spur new possibilities
for improved management of freshwaters. Our studies usually involve
disciplinary methods and goals, but interdisciplinary approaches are
often used as well. We pay particular attention to processes that take
place at border zones within water bodies, as well as at the transition
from water to land. Such boundaries can include for example the
interface between surface and groundwater, the river and its bed, the
lake and its sediment, the interaction between plants and wetlands,
as well as transition zones internal to layered lakes. Because these
aquatic border zones are characterized by sharp physical and geochemical gradients, we assume they are highly reactive or environmentally sensitive areas.

Department 2 –
Ecosystem Research
Our department makes use of an ecosystem approach to understand
the structure and function of lake and river ecosystems in the context
of environmental change such as global climate change and changes
in nutrient conditions as modified by the surrounding catchments.
These studies integrate both abiotic and biotic levels of organization
in ecosystems, including physical limnology, primary production, nutrient cycling, long-term development of plankton, macrophytes, and
biodiversity along with the evolution and ecology of aquatic
macroinvertebrates. These studies are embedded in our climate impact research of lakes and rivers, for which the focus is on the non-linear long-term behavior and bistability in ecosystems. Our studies
range in scale from molecular biology and laboratory work, to in-situ
and whole lake experiments. We acquire long-term data and perform
statistical and deterministic modeling. Our main goals are to develop
new methods, develop and test new theoretical concepts, and to
continue improving ecosystem management strategies.

Department 3 –
Experimental
Limnology
The Department of Experimental Limnology is located directly on the
shore of Lake Stechlin. Its research centers on the impacts of global
environmental change on lake ecosystems and biodiversity. Most of
the investigations focus on microorganisms and the processes driven
by their activities. This includes not only bacteria and algae, but also
zooplankton, fungi and viruses, as well as the multiple interactions
between these organisms. Our main approaches are field experiments
and analyses of long-term time series. A globally unique facility,
the IGB-LakeLab in Lake Stechlin, serves as a versatile platform for
large-scale experiments to assess impacts of environmental change
on lakes and its biodiversity under realistic conditions. Based on the
findings of our studies, we develop concepts and methods for the
sustainable management of lake ecosystems in the future.

performing basic research into ecological and evolutionary questions, they
also provide a number of important “ecosystem services” (e.g. fishing yields
and bioindicators of the ecosystem’s state). Our investigations into ecosystem services focus on the interactions between natural and anthropogenic
environmental factors, and their effects on fish populations. Our methods
include hypothesis-driven laboratory research and mesocosm experiments,
direct manipulation of lakes, comparative field studies, theoretical studies,

Department 5–
Ecophysiology
and Aquaculture
In the department of ecophysiology and aquaculture, we investigate how natural and anthropogenic environmental factors affect
the physiology of aquatic vertebrates (mainly fish and amphibians);
we also develop a scientific basis for the practice of sustainable
aquaculture. Aquatic vertebrates are exposed to biotic and abiotic
factors in both the case of anthropogenically-polluted waters and in
aquaculture. We aim to understand the mechanisms by which such
factors stress different bodily functions. Our investigations cover
many different levels, ranging from genetics and gene expression, to
biochemical and physiological parameters of cell and organ cultures,
up to histopathology and behavior. In this way, we can determine the
effects that various environmental factors have upon reproduction,
stress, development, growth, and the behavior of aquatic vertebrates.

Department 6 –
Analytical Chemistry
and Biogeochemistry
Our research concerns fundamental and applied research questions
regarding (1) the biogeochemical nutrient cycling processes in aquatic
boundaries, (2) the carbon flux between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, (3) the emission of greenhouse gases from inland waters and (4)
the development and use of in-situ techniques for measuring matter
flows in high temporal and/or spatial resolution. This includes work
at various spatial and temporal scales from laboratory microcosms
to large-scale field sampling campaigns in lakes, peatlands and river
networks. On this basis we are able to derive scientific principles for understanding the implications and optimizing measures and to support
water authorities and landscape managers in environmental decision
making.
In addition to our own research activities, we fulfill service tasks for a
significant part of the IGB. In particular, we conduct chemical analyses
for other departments and perform long-term measurement studies
for lakes, rivers, and marshes. These activities include advising doctoral
students in the development and execution of analytical work in both
laboratory and field experiments. Our existing instrumentation (including AAS, ICP-OES, HPLC, HPLC-MS, GC-MS, LC-OCD-OND, IR, Fluorimeter, Laser spectrometer) facilitates concentration measurements for
nutrients, metals, various organic carbon compounds, as well as stable
isotopes in water, biota, sediment, and organic soil.

Research Domain 1 –
Aquatic Biodiversity
The primary goals of the program area are: 1) examining biodiversity (genetic and species) on different spatial and temporal scales, 2)
examining the environmental factors that determine biodiversity and
population structures, and 3) improving our understanding of the underlying control mechanisms and the relationship between biodiversity
and ecosystem function. We include all groups of organisms from limnic
systems in our studies. The lessons we learn provide a basis for managing communities of aquatic organisms in our rapidly changing world.
One of our long-term goals is undertaking a socioeconomic analysis of
the ecosystem services that are provided and secured by aquatic biodiversity. Our program area plays an active role in the “Leibniz Network on
Biodiversity”, and collaborates with a number of other Leibniz institutes
in Germany.
Our research themes
Understanding structural and functional biodiversity in different habitats
Impacts of anthropogenic stressors (e.g. global warming, invasive
species, land use, etc.) on biodiversity, and their evolutionary and
ecological consequences (including ecosystem services)
Evaluation of the evolutionary processes that lead to changes in
biodiversity
Development of innovative biodiversity assessment and management
strategies, particularly of domesticated, novel ecosystems
Work in our research domain is based upon field studies, experimental approaches (e.g. the LakeLab in Lake Stechlin or experimental lakes), genetics, genomics
and bioinformatics, documentation and evaluation of long-term changes in
biodiversity (e.g. IGB time-series at Lakes Stechlin and Müggelsee, as well as the
Tagliamento and Spree rivers), and the modeling of these data.

Aquatic Boundaries
and Linkages
In the “Aquatic Boundaries and Linkages” research domain,
scientists from four departments explore the mechanisms controlling
the state of aquatic ecosystems and their role in the matter fluxes in
the landscape. The research on boundary zones as highly reactive
compartments is focused on wetlands and ponds, the transition zone
between ground and surface water, the littoral of lakes, and the
sediment-water interface.
We work on scientific questions and projects related to nutrient and
carbon balance that require the cooperation of multiple disciplines
(such as hydrology, limnophysics, geochemistry, and biology). Process
studies with novel experimental methods under lab and field conditions are staged, in order to allow model-based transfer to the
ecosystem level and for simulations. The basic research is indispensable for solving acute water problems, to predict the long-term behavior of aquatic ecosystems, and to develop sustainable management
concepts. Interdisciplinary thinking is taught to young scientists
during their training in the International Graduate School AQUALINK,
which was founded by the research domain.
Our research themes
The importance of groundwater and the hyporheic zone for the nutrient
loads of surface water
The role of inland waters for the landscape carbon balance
The importance of physical structure and climate for lake-internal
mattercycle Biotic and abiotic interactions in the littoral
Role of riparian wetlands for water and nutrient balance in the landscape

3 Human-Aquatic Ecosystem Interactions | interdisciplinary
Human-Aquatic
Ecosystem Interactions
Human beings increasingly use nearly all ecosystems directly or indirectly; some have already been used for thousands of years.
The anthropogenic influence on water bodies is especially pronounced,
due to historical and cultural development along rivers and lakes.
Aquatic systems fulfill a number of basic socio-economic functions such
as providing drinking water, flood control, irrigation, navigation, fishing,
and recreational use. Due to the benefits it provides, anthropogenic
reshaping of aquatic systems is understood to be largely irreversible:
waters are part of our cultural landscape. However, our use of waters
can affect ecological functions that are not well understood, and whose
economic importance is underestimated.
For this reason, we examine the (social)-environmental impacts of
different types of waters’ use. Due to the complex interactions between
humans and the aquatic environment, research from both natural and
social sciences is needed in order to develop well-founded sustainable
management strategies for rivers and lakes. In the cultural landscape,
people and water form a coupled social-ecological system with humans
as the key species. Our research domain undertakes fundamental research into the many direct and indirect effects and feedbacks between
humans and aquatic systems, in order to produce management recommendations and to conduct scientific experiments on the results of their
implementation.

Networking in teaching,
research, and practice
Our network is also expanded through our
participation in many professional conferences,
such as the „Water Lives Symposium“ in Brussels.
The IGB currently takes part in a total of 70 national and
international collaborations, with partners from
research, teaching, and practice.
We closely cooperate with universities and other research
institutes, but are also highly valued as partners in the
development of management concepts. Regionally, we are involved in the management of the Spree River, the restoration
of lakes, and the rewetting of peatlands. Internationally, we
take part in many research programs, e.g. on managing drinking water in Mongolia, or on the sustainable reservoir management in Brasil.
New Research Collaborations
We have entered into many new research collaborations, with
partners such as the Catalan Water Research Center (ICRA)
in Girona, the University of Agricultural Sciences in Vienna
(BOKU), the Dunărea de Jos din Galaţi in Romania, the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice in the Czech Republic, and Assiut University in Egypt. In 2013, we signed seven new
collaboration agreements, including with the University of
Duisburg-Essen, the Australian Rivers Institute, the State University of Makassar, Indonesia and within the INAPRO project.
Through the IGB Fellowship Program, we continuously expand
our global network.

BBIB, LakeLab and Company
Our networking is also expanded through our research infrastructure, such as the LakeLab in Lake Stechlin, and the Berlin-Brandenburg Institute of Advanced Biodiversity Research
(BBIB). The BBIB was founded in 2013 with key involvement
from IGB. This consortium of universities and Leibniz institutes
in Berlin and Brandenburg will strengthen biodiversity research in Germany. The Institute will transcend the traditional
boundaries between research areas, scales, and ecosystems.
Changes in biodiversity due to climate change and land use
will be investigated through large-scale experiments and
long-term research programs.
In 2013, the consortium agreement of the Leibniz Network
on Biodiversity (LVB) was signed, providing a solid foundation
for the consortium’s activities on conserving biodiversity. The
network unites 22 research museums and institutes of the Leibniz Association, from environmental sciences, life sciences,
social sciences, economics, and spatial research, as well as from
mathematics, natural sciences and engineering. Together, we
search for innovative solutions to conserve biological diversity,
from genetic up to habitat diversity, ensuring the long-term
health of nature and humankind.
Joint Teaching
Our institute members are closely connected to the universities of Berlin and Brandenburg through joint professorships.
We support the education of young scientists, and are involved
with the development of graduate programs. Contractual cooperation for academic teaching are made via S-Chairs at the
Freie Universität Berlin, the Humboldt Universität zu Berlin, the
Technische Universität Berlin, and the University of Potsdam.
Eight IGB scientists hold joint professorships at the moment.
A search for a W1 Professorship in “Computational Metagenomics” jointly held between the Freie Universität Berlin and
the IGB, is currently underway. A W1 S-Chair of “Environmental Proteomics” with the Freie Universität is also planned, with
both professorships integrated into BBIB. In addition, we look
forward to close cooperation with two other joint academics
at BBIB: a Heisenberg Professorship in “Ecological Novelty”, and
a professorship in “Aquatic Evolutionary Ecology”. Highly talented professors should be appointed to these posts in 2014.

2nd International Conference on
Biodiversity and the UN
Millennium Development Goals
The Millennium Development Goals primarily address
peacekeeping, environmental protection, and reducing
poverty. Although three of the eight goals are directly
related to health, the connection between human health
and biodiversity has so far been neglected.
For this reason, in partnership with France’s I nstitut
Ecologie et Environnement-Centre National de la
Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), the Leibniz Network on
Biodiversity hosted the 2nd International Conference on
Biodiversity and the UN Millennium Development Goals
from April 16-18, 2013.
Medicinal agents are often obtained from nature, but bacteria, plants, and other organisms are more than just mere pharmaceutical ingredients. Biodiversity and human health are
interconnected at many levels. How important is urban biodiversity for our well-being? Why are regions with unstable ecosystems the epicenters for disease outbreaks and epidemics?
Approximately 150 international experts examined such questions at the meeting in Berlin.
A bridge between research in biodiversity
and human health
The conference focused on five themes: biodiversity and infectious diseases, biodiversity and natural products, invasive
species and healthy ecosystems, urban biodiversity and public health, and landscape structures and the spread of pathogens. Research gaps were identified during the conference,
and new approaches for the management of ecosystems and
biodiversity were developed. Professor Tockner explains the
importance of close collaboration among disciplines: “Both
interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research is needed to
identify the measures that need to be taken to improve the
quality of life for the world’s human population in the future.
I firmly believe that the difficult challenges facing our society
can be overcome. Our success will be built by pooling the diverse resources and talents of our research institutions, and by
focusing these joint efforts on the most challenging questions.
Germany has developed several complementary biodiversity
research networks, including the Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre (BiK-F), German Center for Integrative Biodiversity (iDiv), and the Berlin-Brandenburg Institute of Advanced
Biodiversity Research (BBIB). This provides an opportunity for
Germany to establish itself as the world leader in biodiversity
research.”

“The goal of the conference was to build a bridge between
research in biodiversity and human health, and to identify
open questions at the interface of the two disciplines” explains
Professor Klement Tockner, Director of the IGB and co-founder
of the conference. “We also aimed to build networks between
research organizations, such as Leopoldina and CNRS from
France, and with our partners from universities and the Helmholtz Association.”

Real-time Ecohydrology
Workshop
Recent technological developments
have made it possible to conduct
measurements at temporal and
spatial scales that would have been
impossible in the past. In March,
2013, an internal IGB workshop was
conducted to explore the potential applications and gains that
“Real-time Ecohydrology” makes
possible. Participants included
IGB members as well as scientists
from Berlin universities. A subject
of significant discussion was the
question of which issues in water
ecology can be best addressed best
by using real-time ecohydrology.
Examples included weather forecasts
and flood prediction, management
of drinking water reservoirs, and the
use of high-resolution temporal and
spatial data to improve management
recommendations.
3rd Workshop of the
Hyporheic Network
Photo: ALAN/Verlust der Nacht
The Hyporheic zone that links
surface and groundwater, is of major
importance for ecology. Understanding of hyporheic processes has been
hindered due to their complexity,
as well as to their temporal and
spatial heterogeneity. The Hyporheic
Network was initiated by the IGB in
order to allow the close cooperation
necessary to improve understanding
of hyporheic processes, while also
ensuring a swift transfer of academic knowledge into practice. Thirty
people took part in the 3rd workshop,
which took place from October 7-9,
2013 at the UFZ in Leipzig. One particularly successful element of this
workshop was a guided instruction
session, in which participants had a
chance to learn the different measurement methods from each other.
ALAN Conference
The first international conference on
Artificial Light at Night
Researchers, city planners, and representatives of the lighting industry discuss the
impacts of artificial light at night during the ALAN conference.
Over 120 researchers, city planners, designers, and representatives
from industry and environmental protection from 5 continents
gathered in Berlin to discuss the importance and impacts of
artificial light on society and nature.
The Verlust der Nacht (Loss of the Night) research network in cooperation
with the International Dark-Sky Association organized a new conference
series devoted to “Artificial Light at Night”. It was held during October 2730, 2013.
The widespread use of artificial light at night is widely viewed as a
triumph, and is associated with prosperity, security, and modernity.
Despite this, since it’s very inception hundreds of years ago, critical voices
have debated the negative social and biological effects of this environmental change. Recent years have seen a sharp increase in such discussions, due to deeper understanding of the side effects of artificial light,
such as the disturbance of sleep, loss of star-filled skies, and the deaths
of migratory birds in collisions with lit buildings. These concerns must be
balanced against the clear benefits of artificial light for a 24-hour society
that is no longer bound to the natural day/night rhythm.
The Verlust der Nacht project, which is sponsored by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the Berlin Senate, examines
the causes and consequences (environmental, health, cultural, and socio-
economic) of increasing levels of illumination at night. “Light pollution
is a global social-ecological problem which is not well understood. Improved lighting concepts will be most effective if they are based on an
understanding of the processes through which light affects organisms
and systems” explains project leader Franz Hölker. The results of the research project will be used to develop sustainable solutions and concepts
for modern nighttime lighting.
A “stakeholder workshop” was held during the conference
to consider how scientific issues interact with politics and players from industry. The trans-disciplinary nature of the conference
was reflected in the selection of the conference’s plenary speakers, which included a representative of France’s Ministry of the
Environment, the BMBF and Berlin Senate, and representatives from
the lighting industry. The conference is expected to repeat yearly.
ALAN II will take place in Leicester, England, in September, 2014.

The “pulse” of
freshwater
The global “Budapest Water Summit” was held in Budapest during
October 8-11, 2013.
The Secretary General of the United Nations, Ban Ki-moon, and the President
of Hungary, János Áder, opened this unique Forum: For three days, high-level
representatives from research, politics, business, and non-governmental
organizations discussed the sustainable use of water resources.
The focus of the summit was the question of how current
developments in the water sector could be better reflected in the Millennium Development Goals of the United Nations. The participants presented “SMART” solutions (SMART= Specific, Measureable, Attainable, Realistic, and Timely) for sustainable water management, based on the results
of UN programs, initiatives, and the World Water Forum.
Freshwater as a valuable habitat
The director of the IGB, Klement Tockner, sat on the high-level international panel discussing “Water Quality and Sustainable Development Goals”.
Tockner emphasized that “freshwater is not only a basic resource needed
by humans, it is also one of the most valuable habitats on the planet. Any
discussion of the water-energy-food nexus must therefore also consider
ecology and biodiversity. The loss of biodiversity is probably the biggest challenge humanity faces. The precautionary principle requires that economic
development must not come at the expense of biological diversity.”
A “Dow Jones Index” for the environment
In order to evaluate the condition of the environment, we need robust
indicators that can both track changes and at the same time demonstrate their underlying causes; a sort of Dow Jones index for the ecosystems. “High quality scientific data are essential for achieving this
goal,” explains Tockner. “The ‘pulse’ of ecosystems can only be measured
through long term research and monitoring. Such research provides
an ‘early warning signal that should be the basis for priority setting in
environmental management.”
A resolution entitled „A sustainable world is a water-secure world“
was adopted at the end of the summit. Meetings like the “Budapest Water Summit” strengthen the collaboration among different stakeholders,
and bring us closer to the goal of a sustainable economy.

The annual meeting of the German
Society of Limnology (DGL) and
the Ecological Society of Germany,
Austria and Switzerland (DGL) was
held in Potsdam-Griebnitzsee from
September 9-13, 2013. With the motto
“Bridging of scientific disciplines”,
the scientists discussed how to put
limnological topics into a broader
ecological context, particularly
where terrestrial issues are concerned. The University of Potsdam
and the IGB jointly organized the

Careers in Science
Advancing the careers of young
researchers is central to the
mission of IGB; about 60 doctoral
students, 40 master’s and bachelor’s students, and six trainees
work at the institute.
Dr. Christiane Zarfl is responsible
for coordinating their activities.
Dr. Zarfl, approximately 25 IGB scientists also have
teaching agreements at four universities. Could you
please explain how such an arrangement is possible?
The IGB currently has a total of eight so-called “Sonderpro
fessuren”. This means these IGB scientists have joint appointments at universities in Berlin or Potsdam with independent
teaching responsibilities. Other researchers teach university
courses and supervise students during internships or their
Master’s or Bachelor’s degree. This allows the students to benefit
from the collective expertise of IGB in subjects like aquatic ecosystems, fish ecology, and microbiology. We are also responsible
for running the international program in “Fishery Science and
Aquaculture” at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
Apart from teaching, how does IGB support young
researchers in their academic careers?
We offer a structured doctoral program, with excellent
working and learning conditions in both of our graduate schools.
In 2012, we launched an international graduate school called
“Aqualink”, which we continue to coordinate.
We also lead the “Erasmus Mundus Joint Doctorate Programme”
SMART (Science for Management of Rivers and their Tidal
Systems), together with the Freie Universität Berlin. The program
integrates expertise in the fields of hydrology, geomorphology
and ecology, and focuses on open questions in the processes of
aquatic systems as well as the management of water supplies.
At the moment, eight SMART doctoral candidates work at IGB,
from Italy, England, Switzerland, Serbia, Indonesia, India, and
Brazil.
Such a diverse group of countries! How important are
international connections to IGB?
International networks are essential. We support the
advancement of these networks by offering our own Fellowship
Program. Doctoral students, postdoctoral scholars, and senior
scientists are invited to apply for paid research stays at IGB.
How do you support the development of young
scientists based directly at IGB?
The IGB encourages our postdocs and researchers to take part in
an internally organized leadership program. In addition, young
scientists have the opportunity to present their own work and
interact with international guests during our weekly colloquia,
the IGB Scientists Retreat, and further events that promote the
exchange of scientific ideas.
Dr. Christiane Zarfl | [email protected]
You can find an overview of our lectures and colloquia on page 38.
Our colloquia series is highly
appreciated by researchers and
doctoral students.
2013 was an exciting and
productive year for our
doctoral students. Fifteen
students completed their
dissertations, the highest
number in the last decade.
Since a matching 15
students began doctoral
research projects, the total
30 number of students stayed
constant at 62. Five of our bachelor students and 13 master students also completed
their degrees in 2013.
The IGB doctoral program
offered a total of 12 courses
in 2013, each of which was
rated as “excellent” by the
participants. The contribution
of graduate students to IGB
research is dearly valued, and
we promote their work at the
IGB Research Day and in our
colloquia series.
Four new PhD student
representatives were elected
in 2013. They maintain close
contact to the Institute’s
leadership, meet with the
scientific advisory board,
and give valuable input on
numerous issues.

Waterfalls, jungle trails,
and mangrove forests
High school students from Aurich join IGB
scientists on a journey of discovery.
We’re most used to seeing
guppies in aquariums, but their
real home is in the tropics. In
order to observe them in their
natural habitat, IGB scientist Jens
Krause and his team set off for
Trinidad and Tobago. There, the
researchers spent four weeks
investigating the schooling behavior of the small fishes.
The party was joined by two high school students from the
ULRICIANUM Gymnasium in Aurich.
A conversation with Professor Jens Krause, head of the IGB
Department of Biology and Ecology of Fishes:
Professor Krause, taking school students on such an
adventure sounds pretty unorthodox.
Who’s idea was it?
The organizers of Aurich’s “Research Day” asked me whether it
would be possible for a school student to join a research trip to
Trinidad. I have to say that at first I was skeptical. I didn’t know if
they could make a contribution, and I was concerned that they
would lose interest during the month-long journey.
What other obstacles needed to be overcome?
Photos: Romain Clement (1), Andy Küchenmeister (1)
I also had concerns for the student’s safety, of course. What
would happen if they didn’t follow our rules of conduct, and
accidentally hurt themselves?
These concerns were quickly laid to ground by the organizers
from Aurich. They have been sending matching students to
expeditions in remote parts of the Earth for years. They have a
very good understanding of how to prepare for such journeys,
and most importantly, which students have the necessary passion and maturity.
Once you got to Trinidad, how did you involve the
students in the work?
The students were assigned exactly the same tasks as the rest
of the team members. Every day started with a one-hour hike
upriver to our destination in the mountain rain forest. At a series
of small, natural ponds, we investigated the social networks
of fish, and their response to environmental changes. After a
training phase, the students were able to take over a large part
of the data acquisition and data management. I must say, I was
extremely impressed by the exceptional motivation of the
students, their perseverance, and the speed with which they
were able to learn new concepts.
What research results were obtained by the trip to
Trinidad und Tobago?
We have gained many important insights into the social
structure of guppies. For example, it seems that every social
network has a set of properties that it shares with all others,
but there are other properties that make each network unique.
We found that both types of these properties were preserved
through environment disturbances, for example when the
current or water level changed. This means that there is some
kind of social self-organization, which persists under a variety of
environmental conditions.
2nd workshop of the Aqualink graduate school
For the second time, the
young scientists involved
in the Aqualink project met
together with their supervisors for a workshop.
In 2013, the meeting took
place at the University of
Aberdeen. This location
allowed the participants to
benefit from the tutelage of
internationally renowned
scientists at the Aberdeen
Summer School, which directly followed the workshop. At the workshop, the
doctoral students presented
their preliminary results, and
they also developed concrete
plans for future collaborations within the project
teams and with the external
partners.
The workshop also laid the
ground for future publication
of collaborative work in special issues of international journals.
